Gov't Transparency: "Completely redacted" - Ed Jewett - 20-08-2011
Government Transparency on Deployment of Body Scanner Technology in Surface Transit Venues and Street-Roving Vans
August 19th, 2011
Via: Electronic Privacy Information Center: http://epic.org/2011/08/dhs-refuses-to-disclose-detail.html
New documents released by the Department of Homeland Security to EPIC indicate the the agency continues to hide details about body scanners. In November 2010, EPIC filed a Freedom of Information Act request with the agency regarding the deployment of body scanners in surface transit and street-roving vans. In its latest document release the agency supplied several papers that were completely redacted. As a result of the agency's failure to comply with the Freedom of Information Act, EPIC has filed suit to force disclosure of the records. For more information, see: EPIC: Body Scanner Technology and EPIC: FOIA Note #20.
